Senator Bob Dole: Well, Bill, I thought, perhaps, it would be best,if we could talk in private. It would be appreciated.

Hillary Clinton: This is private.

Senator Bob Dole: Now, I would hope the leader of the opposition -the President – could..

Hillary Clinton: I happen to be the co-President of theUnited States. Now, anything you have to say to my husband, you may alsosay to me. Okay?

Senator Bob Dole: Alright, Hillary, if that’s the way you want it. I’mgonna be frank with you. Bill, if you think you can send legislation up tothe Hill, and the Republican leader is just going to roll over and play dead -you can think again! That’s like playing handball with a monkey – we’re notgoing to get in the court!

President Bill Clinton: Well, Bob, we’re anxious to workwith you.

Senator Bob Dole: Well, you’re not going to get anywhere by sending up a bill that has $3.50 of tax increases for every $1 of spending cuts.That’s not going to wash – you know it, I know it, the American people knowit!

Hillary Clinton: I don’t know where you get these figures, Bob.Honestly! [ laughs ]

Senator Bob Dole: Hillary, why don’t you give it a rest? Noone elected you to a damn thing! Now, last year you made fun of womenwho bake cookies. Well, let me tell you something – my wife, Elizabeth Dole,the best Secretary of Transportation this country ever had, she ran the busof this country for four years, and it ran on time! She’d come home everynight, and she still had time to bake me a batch of cookies! So, why don’tyou run along and whip up a batch of chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, macaroon,marshmallow treats, or whatever you make, and keep your nose out of thingsyou know nothing about!

President Bill Clinton: Bob, there’s no reason to get personal.Please.

Hillary Clinton: Yeah! That would be so unlike you,Bob!

Senator Bob Dole: [ angry ] Alright, Hillary, one more word out ofyou, and you’re gonna be a stain on that back wall!

Senator Bob Dole: Sure, it’s fair! I’m a man, alright.. a one-armedman, a man who lost his arm in service to his country! And you’re a goodwoman with two good working arms, and that’s a fair fight. You know it, Iknow it, the American people know it!
